Looking at digitizing some VHS tapes.
Been watching some youtube videos on this.
Some say you need an RCA to HDMI converter also a video capture card.
Then I saw this.

  Human rights campaign declares state of emergency, USA.
Posted by: Lilith7 - 17-03-2025, 02:52 PM - Forum: News and Current Affairs - No Replies

Due to the proliferation of various legislation across the country aimed at regulating the lives of gay people. The Human Rights Campaign said there are more then 70 bills it considers anti LGBTQ, which is double last years similar laws.
It can surely only have got worse since then.

According to Greenland party leaders.   Can't say I blame them, Trump would do well to remember that they're descended from Viking people...

"We - all party leaders - cannot accept the repeated statements about annexation & control of Greenland."
